Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a therapeutic approach developed by Dr. Marsha M. Linehan, blending cognitive-behavioral methods with acceptance strategies. Initially designed for borderline personality disorder, DBT consists of four core components: mindfulness, interpersonal effectiveness, emotion regulation, and distress tolerance. It aims to strike a balance between acceptance and change, offering practical skills to enhance present-moment awareness, improve relationships, regulate emotions, and cope with distress. DBT is widely utilized for various mental health issues, emphasizing a structured and effective approach to treatment.
